Satellite R25 ®

Students and small business professionals alike will appreciate the power and flexibility of the Satellite R25-S3503 convertible notebook, allowing them to work with a traditional keyboard or rotate and fold the screen down for use as a Tablet PC with digital pen-based input and control. A digitizer pen allows the user to handwrite notes, draw, edit copy or write e-mail or input data while standing, sitting or reclining. It can convert handwriting to text or just record your own handwriting. The 14.1-inch Tablet display roughly simulates the writing area of a standard 8.5- by 11-inch sheet of paper to provide optimal room for note-taking and drawing.

For the first time in a Toshiba Satellite convertible notebook, the Satellite R25-S3503 offers Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo Mobile Technologies, docking capabilities as well as Toshiba's exclusive LifeSmart Technology(TM)(1), a set of features that elevate system performance, durability and security with shock-absorbing technologies(2) to protect the hard drive, a spill-resistant keyboard(3), and fingerprint security.

Starting at 5.95 pounds(4), the Satellite R25-S3503 features a 14.1-inch diagonal widescreen TruBrite(TM) LCD display, the Intel Core Duo Processor(5) T2050 and the Microsoft Windows XP Tablet Edition 2005 operating system.

The inclusion of the latest Intel Centrino(R) Mobile Technology enhances overall system performance from graphics to wireless capabilities while reducing power consumption.

Other features found in the Satellite R25-S3503 Tablet PC include:

-- a DVD SuperMulti Double Layer drive that reads and writes in up to 11 formats that can nearly double a recordable DVD's storage capacity for photo, music and video files in either DVD+R or DVD-R double layer formats;

-- 100GB high-capacity 5400 rpm Serial-ATA (SATA) hard drive(3) for faster access to stored files;

-- 5-in-1 bridge media adapter for easy file sharing and download

Portégé ® M400  

I had a chance to try this model with the dual core processor, but unfortunately, it only came with 512Mb of ram.  The first thing I did was to install Windows Vista on it.  The AeroGlass worked immediately and I can definitely see why anyone getting a new computer would want AeroGlass available.  For photos, take a look at our Reviews page. Standard options include 512Mb ram and a CD-RW built-in drive. This is certainly a Tablet worth considering for all your computer needs.

Portégé ® M400 Intelligently Fuses Breakthrough Mobile Technologies into a Highly Portable Tablet PC to Deliver Performance, Productivity

Designed to build upon Toshiba’s highly successful Portégé M200, this new convertible Tablet PC is rich in performance and productivity innovations—including the company’s EasyGuard™ technology 1 —to create an ultra-portable Tablet PC capable of running today’s robust business applications.

The Portégé M400 gives Toshiba the industry’s widest range of Tablet PCs options from a form factor, performance and price point prospective.

“The Portégé M400 embodies the true vision of what Tablet PC computing was first envisioned to be when the concept was originally presented to the public four years ago,” said Jeff Barney, vice president of marketing, Digital Products Division, Toshiba America Information Systems. “We are confident the multi-purpose functionality of the Portégé M400 delivers a Tablet PC which businesses will find as a valuable tool for their workforces.”

Toshiba’s new Tablet PC is the ideal tool for mobile professionals, students and healthcare
professionals. This is the base configuration, but there are many options available, including dual core processors, up to 4G of ram, a DVD-RW, up to a 120G hard drive and many more.  For the full list of specifications, check our Comparison Charts or Toshiba's list of options.
